What are Peptides?
Peptides are often referred to as the “building blocks” of proteins. There are about 7,000 naturally occurring peptides in the body and these peptides are made of amino acids that help signal cells and other molecules about the various functions they need to perform. Some of the functions they “signal” include digestion, release of hormones, cell growth, immune system function and regeneration, among others.
However, there are a number of factors that can lead to a decline in both the availability and quality of naturally occurring peptides, including age. When this occurs, the body may not perform certain functions optimally, resulting in negative symptoms such as weight gain, aged-looking skin, and beyond.
What Peptides do we offer?
At Forward Healthy Lifestyles, we are constantly researching the most effective peptide therapies to address patient needs – from anti-aging to healing to weight loss. While our peptide therapies are ever expanding, some of our most popular current peptides include:

Am I an Ideal Candidate for Peptide Therapy?
Forward Healthy Lifestyles can help men and women of many ages feel better, look better, and function better with peptide therapy. Patients with many different medical and cosmetic concerns can be candidates for this treatment. Pain relief, body shaping (weight loss and/or muscle building), and greater mental clarity are just a few treatment goals that peptide therapy candidates might have.
People who suffer from inflammatory conditions can be good candidates for peptide therapy. This treatment can be beneficial for patients with autoimmune diseases, chronic tiredness, fibromyalgia, and issues with poor wound healing.
Men and women who want to age more gracefully are often great candidates for peptide therapy. If the natural aging process is negatively affecting your hormone levels, your ability to lose weight or maintain a slim figure, and/or the appearance of your skin and hair, you may be a good candidate for peptide therapy.
What Is a Peptide Therapy Treatment Like?
There are several ways to administer peptides, so treatments can vary. Most often, peptides are injected subcutaneously. This method is preferable in the majority of cases because it delivers the peptides directly into the bloodstream, making for an efficient treatment.
In some instances, injections may not be the best option. Certain conditions and/or treatment goals may call for peptide therapy in the form of oral capsules, topical lotions and creams, or even nasal sprays.
Peptides and Anti-Aging
Peptides have become a sought-after form of therapy to support cosmetic and anti-aging goals. In some cases, peptides have been shown to support collagen and elastin production, healthy immune function, sexual dysfunction, cognition, muscle regeneration, hormone function, and beyond.
Forward Healthy Lifestyles specializes in helping men and women enhance their wellness and reach their aesthetic goals. We offer a wide range of anti-aging wellness therapies, as well as cosmetic and aesthetic services such as hormone replacement therapy, skincare services, body contouring treatments, and so much more, to help men and women go out into the world looking and feeling their best.
Peptides and Weight loss
At Forward Healthy Lifestyles, our team specializes in helping men and women who struggle with losing weight or whose weight seems to “yo-yo” no matter how hard they try to keep it off. We focus on helping the individual, that means understanding your personal needs, concerns and challenges, and helping find solutions to reach your goals.
Peptide therapy for weight loss is one of the services we offer to qualified candidates, including AOD-9604. The process begins with a complimentary consultation with one of our medical staff. For those patients who are a candidate, peptide therapy may aid in the body’s weight loss and fat burning processes. Generally, patients will see results in 4-6 weeks.
If you’re struggling with weight loss, or are interested in peptide therapy to support your weight loss ambitions, call us today to schedule your no commitment, complimentary consultation.
